Extremely pleased with my Elitewood Ultra patio cover! It’s absolutely beautiful. All the past rain confirmed that the insulated ceiling is superb and extremely quiet underneath. Cody was easy to work with and took care of all the permits. Mario and crew did an outstanding job with installation. Highly recommend.

American Patio Masters just finished installing our patio. We couldn't be happier. Lynn has been great to work with. He came to our house to discuss ideas and options and his prices are reasonable.

American Patio Masters redid my parents backyard patio and it looks awesome. Cody helped us through the whole process from estimate to the end of the project and was great to work with. If you want a trustworthy group to work with for a renovation, these are your best bet

I was more than happy with product and price. Then, it rained for the first time and I had several small leaks. Have been trying to get Alberto to come out and fix but has blown me off too many times and refused to rectify the problem. Why a business with otherwise a positive experience would have such a negative, lazy, bad attitude person as their employee to 'fix problems' baffles me.
